We’re back for year two! 🏃♀️💙💛
Join us on Saturday, November 21st at 10:30 AM in Riverside Park for the 2nd Annual St. Nicholas Charity Run!
St. Nicholas (Sviatyi Mykolai) spent his life caring for the most vulnerable. Following his example, we’re coming together to share hope, kindness and the true spirit of giving.
Our goal: Raise funds for St. Nicholas gifts for children in Ukraine affected by the war, including orphans and children from families in need. 100% of the money raised goes directly to the gifts.
This year we’re partnering with the Holy Protection Monastery of the Sisters of the Studite Rule of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in Lviv, Ukraine, who will help us buy and hand out the gifts.
This holiday season, let’s bring smiles, warmth and a little Christmas magic to children whose childhoods have been deeply affected by the war.
After the run: Stay for our post-run social! We’ll all head to a nearby coffee shop to warm up, grab a hot drink and spend time together.
Optional: Wear Ukrainian colors! 💙💛
Date: Saturday, November 21st, 2026 Time: 10:30 AM Location: Riverside Park, Warsaw Ghetto Memorial (Riverside Park & 83rd Street) https://maps.app.goo.gl/J2EREdHkgZpsN31E7
